Zuckerberg's love for sports is quite famous, and in the "date" turmoil with Musk, most netizens are optimistic about Xiaozha, who maintains professional martial arts training all year round. Zuckerberg is reportedly still studying to get a pilot's license. Previously, Zuckerberg also tore a knee ligament during martial arts training and had to stay in bed.
Zuckerberg loves martial arts, extreme sports, etcIt is listed as a "significant business risk" by MetaAccording to SEC regulations, every public company must upload a 10-K report within 60 days of the end of the fiscal year, which not only fully discloses all major operating events of the previous fiscal year, but also makes a comprehensive inventory of the company's assets and risk matters.
Meta said in this year's 10-K report that "Zuckerberg loves contact sports such as mixed martial arts, as well as extreme sports on the water and recreational aviation flight." If the CEO is unable to stay in touch due to a sports injury, it will have a significant impact on the company's operations. Meta also revealed that under Zuckerberg's "leading by example," there are other members of the company's executive who have also fallen in love with some high-risk sports that are prone to injury. The report also states that "these sports carry the risk of serious injury and death." ”
Zuckerberg is known to have a soft spot for combat sports, and once had a sparring partner with Chinese mixed martial arts professional Wu Zhongkai, who was coached by Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu master Camarillo. Camarillo has previously brought multiple UFC Mixed Martial Arts World Titles, but he says Zuckerberg is the best fighter he's ever had. Zuckerberg not only won multiple gold medals in amateur competitions, but also revealed in November that he had tore his cruciate ligament due to a combat injury and had to undergo bed recuperation.
Interestingly, Zuckerberg and Musk had a quarrel over the competition between Meta's new social product Threads and Twitter, and at one point they had to "fight" in the cage, but this long-awaited fighting match did not happen. According to the 10-K report, the popularity and revenue of the Threads product are very positive, in line with Zuckerberg's positioning of the product as "high style, high risk, high reward". As soon as the news came out, Meta's stock price rose 2032%, and achieved the first dividend in the company's history.
It was revealed that he was learning a flight lessonPeople jokingly call him responsible for the "land, sea and air" sportsIn July last year, Zuckerberg was revealed to be taking flying lessons and hoping to get a pilot license issued by the Federal Aviation Administration as soon as possible. Zuckerberg also admitted, "My ambitions are very big, and I want to conquer both the sky and the sea." ”
In addition to fighting and flying, Zuckerberg's other sports hobbies include surfing and fencing, and he is also jokingly referred to as a "land, sea and air" sports program, and as a billionaire, Zuckerberg is not low on sports equipment.

On July 4, 2021, Zuckerberg celebrated U.S. Day in a unique way. A short ** he posted showed him gliding across empty water with a giant American flag in his hand. Zuckerberg's surfboard rises about a foot above the water (0.).304 meters), which indicates that he is using a hydrofoilboard. The bottom of the board is lifted by a wing-like structure, and players can turn on the generator on the bottom of the board via a Bluetooth device or rely on their legs to swing to generate power.
Nelson, the owner of Lift Foils, a Canadian sports equipment company, confirmed that Zuckerberg was using his family's products, which cost more than $10,000, and that Zuckerberg also had a large collection of signed or limited edition hydrofoils.
Nielsen said the company has always wanted to develop new categories in surfboard equipment, but due to the high cost of materials and the difficulty of operation, it has launched products such as "kiteboards" with few customers. The "hydrofoil surfboard" was developed in 2019. Nielsen said that hydrofoil boards contain lithium battery components and high-strength carbon fiber materials, which are prohibitive for the average person. But after Zuckerberg "brought the goods", there were also some wealthy people who became interested in this new thing, and some Canadian professional ice hockey players also began to join the ranks of hydrofoil surfing.
Nielsen also said Zuckerberg's fencing gear was also purchased at their company. "When people think of Zuckerberg, they think he's a nerd with a lot of computer skills, but he's actually very good at all kinds of sports, and he really flies on the water like a pelican when he surfs. You can tell that he really likes sports. ”
